Rape Trauma Syndrome and Sexual Dysfunction. This paper looks at how Rape Trauma Syndrome (RTS) brings fear and anxiety to the very area of life that should bring intimacy and comfort. Studies of individuals in society and in the prison population have shown the devastating physical and emotional impact that the invasion of the act of rape can cause. Invasive sexual abuse in childhood or as an adult can cause symptoms ranging from panic attacks to drug abuse. It is important that those who offer sexual counseling be aware of the specific signs of RTS so that they can offer more than standard treatment to free individuals from the deep pain and fear that is held by those experiencing RTS. 11 pgs. 16 f/c. 26b.
